Today…today is historic. Epoch-making. The universe quakes in antici…pation.
For the first time since coming to Japan, my work will show at a gallery, and I WILL BE THERE.
At the opening reception, you can chat with me and I will regale you with tales of paper and cutting. And maybe, if you’re really lucky, of my childhood on a farm. And, since I’ve been a bit of a teetotaler lately (not by intent, I assure you), you might get to see me bump into a wall or say something mind-numbingly inappropriate! Oh, the excitement!
Here are the details:
Name: 「SPACE & NATURE」(believe me, the name sounds much cooler in Japanese)
Place: Kópis Gallery (http://www.g-kopis.com/)
near Kiyosumi-shirakawa station, Tokyo baby!
ph. 03-5639-2381
1-2-12 1F Shirakawa, Koto-ku, Tokyo 135-0021
Opening Reception: Saturday, August 30th from 6pm
Dates: August 30 - September 6, 2008 (Gallery closed on Tuesday, the 2nd)
Time: 11am to 7pm (from 1pm on the 8th, until 5pm on the 14th)
I will be there for the opening reception and all day Sunday the 31st (probably). I will likely be there at least one more day during the week, but I don’t know when just yet.
Here’s a link to the gallery (all in Japanese!)
And here’s a map (also in Japanese).
English directions from Kiyosumi-Shirakawa station: Just use exit A3, when you finish climbing the stairs take a left and then an another immediate left. When you hit the road, go right and the Kopis Gallery will be on the next corner. It’s like, a 3-minute walk.
Now, I have to get back to cutting paper, or the walls will be very blank. Space indeed.

Now I’ll have to remember to bring my camera to the opening. Geez…talk about pressure. I’ll try to post pics right after the event. I’m just happy I actually get to attend one of my openings. I sure hope somebody comes.
